Holiday Gift Suggestions from Author Kim Lenox

Eeek! It’s Purple Tuesday! It’s almost Christmas! Do you have your shopping underway? Okay, okay … I made the phrase Purple Tuesday up … it sounds a lot less ominous than Black Friday.

I always enjoy reading or watching television shows where product recommendations are featured. I don’t watch much Oprah, but if I hear her “Favorite Things” giveaway is scheduled, I do my best to tune in. I’ve found some cool gift ideas for friends and family by watching those episodes. So when I came across this amazing product, I knew I had to share it with all of you at Yankee Romance Reviewers, just in case you had someone on your list that you still hadn’t bought for.

This gift item provides the ultimate in a virtual reality experience. Seriously, the Wii can’t touch it. Sensations … textures, scents, sounds, vivid colors and tastes? They’re all included, and require no expensive cartridge/refills. This product also provides chills, thrills and sighs like you wouldn’t believe.

The name of this marvelous invention is: the Book™©®.

Still not convinced that this is the perfect holiday gift? Here are a few other product details to consider:

A Book™©® can be used as a Time Machine, offering glimpses – and even allowing you to spend time with a variety of famous personages, long since passed. My book, NIGHT FALLS DARKLY allows you to share moments with Queen Victoria, Bram Stoker and Jack the Ripper, just to name a few. (All from the safety of your own seat). But that’s not all … if historicals aren’t your thing, the Time Machine function works just as well to sneak you into alternate realms, or even transport you into the future.

Books™©® come highly customized to suit user preferences. You can choose any “fit” – one size fits all -- or select a more specific, tailored version. And best of all … the Book™©® will never run out of batteries or charge, go out of stock, or expire. And you can be assured that the manufacturer won’t release a newer version next month with expanded bells and whistles, leaving your Book™©® obsolete.

If that isn’t enough to convince you, I’m providing the following price comparison:

The Nintendo Wii - $249.99

The Book™©® – 3.99 - $35.99 (Upgrades and additional options may increase the base price of your book by a nominal amount).

Happy Holidays everyone!

Kim Lenox, despite sometimes writing very corny blog posts, writes dark and sexy paranormal historicals – with a dash of wicked humor -- for NAL/Signet Eclipse. Her debut novel, NIGHT FALLS DARKLY: A NOVEL OF THE SHADOW GUARD, is currently available at your favorite bookstore. She invites you to visit her at http://www.kimlenox.com/ and http://www.silkandshadows.com/.

Death is inevitable.
But there are some souls, more wicked and disobedient than most, who defy Death’s claim.
Rebellious souls who must be called to heel.

ARCHER, Lord Black, returns to England at the behest of Queen Victoria to immerse himself in the dark, hellish streets of London’s East End. Among the immortal Shadow Guard, he is the most prolific and cunning of the Reclaimers. He revels in the hunt of his current prey: an ill-mannered, reluctant soul reviled in the daily newspapers as Jack the Ripper. Archer has only one weakness … one distraction … the young woman he spared from death two years before.

ELENA WHITNEY has never wanted for anything – not since coming under the protection of her mysterious and absent guardian, Lord Black, who has gifted her with everything a young woman of quality could ever hope for, including an enviable address, an unlimited income and entrée into the drawing rooms of high society. But now, after nearly two years of indifference, he believes he can sweep into her life and rid himself of her by marrying her off. If he knew anything about her – anything at all – he’d know she had greater aspirations than that.
